Our Verdict

Acer Nitro VG271UP Pbmiipx

LG 27GL850-B/27GL83A-B

The LG 27GL850-B/27GL83A-B is better than the Acer Nitro VG271UP Pbmiipx. The LG 27GL850-B has better ergonomics, so you can position it to your liking with ease, and has a faster response time that helps deliver slightly crisper motion. The Acer VG271UP has an optional Black Frame Insertion feature to make motion crisper, and although it has marginally better contrast, its terrible black uniformity is noticeable in a dark room.
